That vintage sounds like Young Chang Manufacture, and can have the
growing action bracket problem.<br>

I
don’t know if being a Baldwin dealer makes any difference, but I’ve
ordered parts from Mr. Malone via email. He has supplied the parts
for current models. I don’t know if he stocks the older Wurlitzer
parts. I think these older Wurli parts are actually Young
Chang. It may be that these brackets were the ones that “grow” with
time. I’d check with Young Chang to find out.<br>
As far
as the Baldwin snafu, I feel your pain. $1.5K is a chunk of
change. Sorry to hear about this.<br>

Paul, <br><br>
As far as I know, it would be a waste of time. That was one the
"things" when <br>
they bought Baldwin, that they were only buying their assets. NOT
their<br>
liabilities! What a CROCK! JMHO! <br><br>
Besides, no one I've heard mention it on the list has ever gotten a
response<br>
for him or anyone else! :-( <br><br>
Avery <br><br>
P.S, Of course, I lost over $1500.00 when all that happened! <br>
No, I'm not bitter. Not at all! <br><br>

You can email Thomas Malone at Baldwin (they make the current<br>
Wurlitzer): Thomas.malone@gibson.com . I don't know if they still
have<br>
the parts you need.<br>

I worked on Wurlitzer grand yesterday that the hammer line had fallen
to<br>
the point of losing about a 3rd of the key travel. When I pulled
the<br>
stack off to do a course adjust of the capstans(2 1/2 turns each) one
of<br>
the brackets fell to pieces on the keys. Both it and the other
interior<br>
bracket seem to have been epoxied together by a preceding tech. I
need<br>
to find replacements for these(no I'm not going to try and do a
better<br>
job of gluing). Does anyone know who would have made this piano
probably<br>
in the late 80's to early 90's. My guess is Samick but I thought that
I<br>
would check with you guys before proceeding.<br>
thanks for any help in advance<br>
